Very very good, logistic system can be a bit frustrating early game, but I suppose that is what progress is for.

Hell of a curve, I've played this for 11 hours and I can get to wave 4/5. The rebel hulks are impossible. A lot of the game is not accessible to me. I've tried various strategies, the rebel hulk waves can run through 7-8 catapults and melt stone walls. Needs more tuning. I've had waves that I've struggled with, then felt that I was in a good place for the next wave, even when the next wave has two columns, thinking I imagine its just double what I've just dealt with. Noooooooo, each of those columns was double the last column that I struggled with, and there is two of them. 11 hours, barely seen gold coins from the market.

The game is really clunky and badly designed, that is the TL;DR.

There are games that cost far less that are far more polished. If Hades and Dyson Sphere Program can look and play as polished as the do for less that £20, then what is this development team doing?

Any time I place a building, the FPS drops to under 30 FPS from 120FPS. This is after I had to work out that I had to disable VSYNC to get frames above 25FPS. When I was trying to place a building while VSYNC was turned on, I was getting single digit FPS on a 5700XT.

Core gameplay is impacted by the drops in FPS. The worst thing about these FPS drops is you know when they are going to happen, so why hasn't the Dev team resolved this? I don't believe its a technical restriction, as this happens on the very first building you place.

The UI is terrible, mispelled words all over the place, The UI is also not intuitive. I had to google how to insert a new station into my line, I had to google how to rotate, as the controls section of the settings does not mention the word rotate.

I'd avoid at full price, and only buy if you are into this type of game when on sale. Really really disappointed in this.

EDIT: Can recommend, developers are really hot on dealing with issues. Turned out it wasn't a bug, just some unintuitive game design with a core aspect of the game WHICH is to be expected in an Alpha game.

Can whole heartedly recommend, a developer and tester took some time to help me understand this issue!

So this is in Alpha, really compelling game design. You always feel the need to be taking the next step, that could be improving your current supply chain, adding a higher tier good to your supply chain, or even spinning up another type of supply chain to supply a whole set of different good.
